Black Females in Fiction

Obviously, this community is at it's core about black female characters. Since it is just starting out, I'm going to let the topics be very broad, and we'll take it from there. So criticism, praise, and general discussion about specific characters to general portrayals, graphics, fanfic, and original works are all perfectly welcome.

Help me make this community grow; don't be afraid to post! A good start would be making some introductions in the comments.
